Perhaps, but the second permission grant on that page carries no such
restriction on network-enabled services:
In addition, any service which does not remain persistent on the
system (aka, it "runs once then goes away") and does not require
configuration to be functional may be enabled by default (but is not
required to do so). Examples of "runs once then goes away" services
include iptables and udev.
As a set of oneshot services that run once at boot time and then
terminate, cloud-init falls entirely within the bounds of that grant.
But if the fact that it contacts the network makes you uneasy then I
can ask FESCo to clarify their statement. Would that help?
